After he was completely shaved down, we found a timid, albeit adorable dog underneath. Still reeling from God only knows how long that it hurt for him to be touched, Wingnut flinched whenever anyone tried to pet him. 😔 It took several weeks of gentle caressing to help Wingnut understand that touch won’t hurt anymore. This boy FLEW out of his shell once he realized that the pain was gone, and it wasn’t coming back. He became so confident, playful and loving! Wingnut will never know this kind of neglect again. His new family is very familiar with grooming needs, and they love him SO very much!
